I met a fish today




I met a fish today.

A fish with no legs, no hair and no voice to speak of.
And this fish wanted to be a bird.
(I know these things; fishes wanting to be birds, cows longing for blood, horses dreaming of hatching)
So I knitted it some wings and taugth it how to fly.

And the fish asked howcome
- the trees
- the why of them branching
- the uses of vertigo
- the absence of teeth
And I told it all these things.

Except for the teeth, cause you never know...
